We won't hold it against you if you should draw a blank upon hearing someone talk about "Taike Dance." In a nutshell: Taike is the most locally indigenuous of all dance styles performed here as part of the World DanceSport Games 2013 Kaohsiung. It was invented and performed in this city for the first time during the Opening Ceremony of The World Games (i.e. the IWGA World Games that feature DanceSport alongside 30+ other sports) back in 2009.
Since then it has set out on a global conquest. It was performed at the Endigburgh arts festival 'Fringe' in Scotland and at several other events around the world.
It is a very innovative temple fair dance that involves the 'seven-star' steps that were traditionally danced by Taoist deity sedan-chair carriers during religious festivals and are accompanied by loud traditional temple tunes and neon lights.
Immediately following the Formation Latin Final you'll get an even clearer picture of Taike Dance.
